Peaceful days return after Mob's fight with Teru. As usual, Reigen continues to trick people as a fake psychic, and the president of the Telepathy Club, Tome Kurata, drags Mob around to find other espers. Then one day, a mysterious man talks to Mob's younger brother, Ritsu...

Salt Middle School undergoes deep cleaning lead by the student council president, and one thug after another gets targeted. Meanwhile, the story about Mob defeating the shadow leader at Black Vinegar Middle School starts to get embellished and takes on a life of it's own, and Mob gets to be known as "White T Poison." All of the gang leaders from the other schools start to gather at Salt Middle School to confront White T Poison. Also, Ritsu awakens to his dormant psychic powers, and Dimple manages to convince Ritsu to pair with him to become stronger than his brother. Ritsu finally gets to experience those powers for himself.

Mob, Ritsu, and Teru are trapped in a room where they can't use their powers. And then, someone rather unexpected shows up in front of them: Mob's master and self-proclaimed psychic, Reigen. Somehow, Reigen is mistakenly thought as the boss of Claw, and easily manages to get inside and successfully saves Mob and the others. However, there is no way that Ishiguro would let them get away with this. As they try to escape the 7th Division, the upper echelon stands in their way.

The day for the annual marathon and Salt Middle School was drawing nearer. Mob proclaims that if he places in the top 10 he'll tell Tsubomi how he feels about her. Everyone around him cheers Mob on and he starts training hard every day until the day of the event. Meanwhile, Tsubomi and her friend Miki go to Reigen's Spirits and Such Consultation Office with a request. Ritsu happened to be at the office, helping out in Mob's absence, but he hears Tsubomi say something rather surprising.
